@dlatchx that's not a lot!

@lkundrak 48.00 BogoMIPS on each of the 24 cores, so I guess 1152 in total. I wasn't sure if I'm supposed to just add them up, but lscpu also adds up the 4MB of L1i cache and 72MB of L2 cache, so I'm sure that's fine. The CPUs run at 75456 MHz total, giving it 0.01527 BogoInstructions per cycle, which I'm sure is the scientific way to compare these things.

@lkundrak that machine is 14 years old 🤷‍♀️

@dlatchx yeah @oleksandr got a faster computer and more cores

@lkundrak @oleksandr oh, of course, you should multiply by 24 if you count all cores.

But it doesn't make sense for bogomips: it's not used to measure a computing power, just calibrate a scheduler

@dlatchx @oleksandr first and foremost it's a swagness measuring contest

@lkundrak @dlatchx @oleksandr honestly if you use bogomips for anything other than a dominance display you're a 5 digit wielding fool
